This issue is 5 years old and has 2 patches: it's far from being "newcomer 
friendly", I remove the "Easy" label.

Is this closer to what Zachary.Ware suggested, patch implements a 
wait_until_deleted method in C Api using inotify for Linux/FreeBSD.

Serhiy Storchaka added the comment:

What if other program will create a file with same name in short time after 
deletion? Then rmtree() will hang in infinity loop.

With respect to msg224566, is a default timeout a good solution?

Serhiy Storchaka added the comment:

On Linux and some other systems there is an API which allow you to subscribe 
on notifications about file system events (in particular on deleting specified 
file). There are modules which provides Python interface to it (e.g. python-
inotify, inotifyx, pyinotify). May be there is similar API on Windows?

2014-07-21 Thread Zachary Ware 

New submission from Zachary Ware:

As suggested by Martin in msg170717, shutil should grow some way to block until 
a given file/directory is actually deleted, due to Windows' scheme of not 
actually deleting a file until all handles to it are closed.

This could take the form of a 'wait=False' parameter to rmtree that causes 
rmtree to block until the file/dir is gone (which could mean blocking 
indefinitely), or a new function wait_until_deleted(name, timeout=None).
